In December 2024, Sovini Ltd, a public body based in Bootle, United Kingdom, awarded a contract for the supply, licence, and support of an HR and Payroll System to MHR International Limited. This contract involves the provision of both mobile and desktop modules and includes training, analytics, and various add-ons. The procurement process was completed without prior publication of a call for competition due to the specific nature of the products required and previously unsuccessful tender exercises.
